Neurological Examination In Infancy And Childhood
نویسنده
چکیده
The neurological evaluation of infants and children differs from that of older children and adults principally because of the phenomenon of development. The process of development alters the neurological behaviors and functions that would be expected at different ages. Development also changes the findings on physical examination. Finally, the natural history and manifestation of abnormal function and disease are very often different at different stages of development. Thus, development is an important variable in the evaluation of infants and young children.

متن کاملRelationship between breast feeding in infancy with blood pressure in early
Introduction: Recent studies have shown that breast feeding reduces blood pressure (BP) in childhood, but association of breast feeding and BP in adulthood is not clear. The aim of this study was to evaluate association between breast feeding in infancy with BP in early adult life. Methods: This cross-sectional study was done through random sampling on 384 students aged 18-32 years in Azad un...
متن کاملLong-term outcome after neonatal hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy.
Outcome of full-term infants with neonatal encephalopathy of hypoxic-ischemic origin is often assessed in infancy or early childhood and data on outcome in childhood and adolescence is limited. MRI performed in the neonatal period has made a huge contribution to recognition of different patterns of injury. These different patterns of injury are related to the severity of later motor and cogniti...
متن کاملThe Potential Application of Multiscale Entropy Analysis of Electroencephalography in Children with Neurological and Neuropsychiatric Disorders
Electroencephalography (EEG) is frequently used in functional neurological assessment of children with neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. Multiscale entropy (MSE) can reveal complexity in both short and long time scales and is more feasible in the analysis of EEG. Entropy-based estimation of EEG complexity is a powerful tool in investigating the underlying disturbances of neural netwo...
متن کاملMyocardial ischaemia in infancy and childhood.
Examination of 135 consecutive necropsy specimens has shown that ischaemic myocardial injury is not uncommon in infancy and childhood. The extent of the myocardial change has been assessed by a technique of staining with acid fuchsin, first described by Selye (1958). The significance of the findings is discussed.
